Divine intoxication spills out the bores
a self diluting fix that craves all the more
destructive seasoned vet,full glass of sting
a bittersweet triumph that weighs in each day

Obsession-my falsest friend
moderation-a fantasy that i cant win
devastation-a hardship loss
demanding-the pain of wasted years

Chorus-

Lift me up,
tear me down,
will i last through this glorious nightmare

Collapse all that sacred,prey on the weak
slow painfull suicide that steals from each man
hells fire soon returns to rape the well
prolific doom machine that hears our words

I'm fighting the will to live,
with countless persuasions
i'm fighting the will to live,
the endless tempations,
its lifeless grip,
that haunts us all

Pulling from every direction,
its lifeless grip graps hold
yearning is now my dissension,
its lifeless grip graps hold

Chorus

Smother his life-the words cut right to the heart
disease and threaten my family name
an epic stand is made,
condemned i will not plead

Damned to the beast of torment
damned by the beast within us all

Chorus-

Crushed by the fear
more stone,more stone
more weight for Corey

Not one step forth could capture amission of guilt
by law,avoids death on gallows hill
through time his fight will martyr my name
my soul free of a heretic

Court of ayer and terminer,
leave me my rightful land
court of ayer and terminer,
leave me my rightful land

To stow in my heart-to leave to my sons
peine forte et dure is called-
an effort to collapse belief
has failed,and surely will die with me

Rectify my name

How can we close or eyes,
when the walls around wear thinner each day
how can we close our eyes,
when a parade of chaos marches through the land

This is the end,end of all

We've been down this road before
yet we all just stand and watch
everlasting ignorance has led our ways
forewarned,but still forgotten-our history erased

This is the end of all

Chorus-

Down on our knees,
we bow to hatred
down on kneess
we fade away

We've tried and failed
now rome burns again

This time its all of us
this time its forever

A west side run through
one string away from taking the lead
we stalked the streets at night,
to live,to fear,to breath

Bring back those days of gold,
when the torch was ours to bear
A troubled youth for some,
for us a crown to wear

Chorus-

I see a time,a sanctity of brothers
we knew another world

A west side horror
a torch burned out before his own time
we closed our eyes at night,
to hurt,to hear,to breath

Bring us back to the days
bring us back to the ages of innocence
our time to live forever
our worlds will meet again

Hell strikes on solid ground
give us the strength to hold our home
open the wrath again
withstood the fight before,been told to leave it all
go where i do not know
we will stare down the eyes of fire

Chorus-

Like stone we battled the winds
beat down and strangled the rains
we stood to fight till the end
but mother has breached our defense

Keep rising,
the devil is rising,
We lost it all
the devil is rising

It only took five days for the man to come for me
i know our faith is strong and belief is all we need
it was those lonely nights that tried our hearts
it was those lonely nights that tore us apart

And then our faith grew dim
it was our solemn sin

Forsaken-in the eyes of fire
we lost it all-in the eyes of fire

Victim-the cards were dealt with less time for me
Rebel-my only way to avoid your sympathy
Virtue-spellbinding charm,
and the strength of a hurricane
Blacksheep-the rebel son,
that clashed with authority

Powerless-at least i have tonight
the roads not long-at least i have tonight

Bloodline-few will see this through till the end
Cower-some hide in fear,controlled by ignorance
Eyes closed-the cruelest site for those to see
Sting-your conscience seared as anguish tears away

I might not come back tomorrow
please know i chose the right path for me

Chorus- I've lived,i've died
i've done it all a thousand times
and i dont regret a thing i've done
this time was mine to have

Wanderer-i've seen it all like no other man,
i've seen the light of all worlds
Father-i did my best for lack of my own
Son-a ragged path,but the love was not unknown
Brother-the best of times-a forever unyielding bond

Free-from this disease
Farewell-i'll miss you all

Wander this world with tired hands
Wander these streets a broken man
Been through this time after time and it wont be the last,
But I wont break again
Second lease on a terminal change
Every step met with force and demands
Reclaim all that loved and destroyed
Belief lends a hand to the path of the strong
I want to know, need to know, my next lesson
I want to feel whats alive inside of me
I want to know, need to know, my impression
I want to look inside and see whats made to be
I want to know
Concede the loss of the some to fuel the life of others
The unstoppable
Wandered alone, wont break again
Left forgotten and without hope, I still remain
Cant stop this heart
Wont break again
Forever as stone

Take us back
Reawake

Erase the wrongs that plague us
Reawake
Rewrite the page that changed me
Take us back
To the times of a cherished past
Reawake
Allow us to find the way
Endursed a lifetime of cold frustration
Now lick the wounds and fight another day
Your hands will reach
The walls are coming down
Stand up againt the rage
The walls are coming down
So it goes
Hypnotize
So it goes
The blood pours from your heart
Hypnotize
Allow us to find the way
Man down look around
Seven rifles to the sky
Lock and load, lock and load
Gung ho, gung ho
Afraid of he rafe you feel from a bullet name life
And a gun called pride, aim - fire
We fight to live or live to die
We all fight the same old wars
Will you fight to live or will you live to die
So it goes
Stand up and find the way

Will you fight to live or will you live to die
So it goes
Stand up and find the way

The lines been drawn
The lines been blurred for far too long
The years have scaled frustration
How can you shine your shell with such profound pretension?
We have lost ourselves to self-contradiction
We have lost ourselves to the rise of opposition
The hand that leads and feeds you
Would we all still battle if this caved in beneath you
Weve done it on our own
All the years of bleeding
Weve done it all alone
Now you will bleed for me
Its a war
We have lost ourselves to our own lies
The bleeding intentions
This is the line Ive drawn
This is your last chance
The is the lines Ive drawn
Now you must bleed dry for me
Wars
This is the line Ive drawn
The is your last chance
